Small Ikebana Footed Vase, Desk Accessory, Candle Holder, Blue, Simple Art Nouveau

Description

This small blue vase is 3" tall and shaped to give it an organic, fluid feel. It's simple but still in the spirit of the Art Nouveau style. It has 6 sides and 6 feet.

This listing is for the vase (and flower frog pin) in the first picture only. The small flower frog (pin) is used to hold your flower stems. These vases display flowers beautifully in small spaces or large. In singles or bunches. The idea is to cut the stem to the size that works for you and place them on the frog pin, place the rocks on top and then fill with water.

These vases are extruded rather than thrown on the wheel. An extruder is like a big Play-Doh Fun Factory, but mounted on the wall. These are extruded with a die that makes a nice six-sided tube. I then create the feet, add a bottom and finish off the edges to give them a nice organic shape.

I can also include the gravel but convo me to leave out if you want to save on shipping :-).

This is one in a series of 3 made at the same time (see pics). They all feature my studio mixed Hawaiian Blue Glaze. They are fired to Cone 8 and are dishwasher and food safe. They would also make nice candle holders for larger candles, votives, or desk accessories, or candy/nut servers or....

The other two are available and if you are interested in the set please convo me.

Signed and dated 2007. A signed description is also included.
